Open Weekend Post: Hosted by the many faces of Edward

Dear Rob,

I was just combing through some screencaps from the very smexy clip of you and Jacob coming to blows in Eclipse and I wanted to commend you on the all out facial expressions. You are really going for it… you were so into it almost seems like you were talking about something else altogether…

R: DUDE tell me the truth, do these contacts make me look like a praying mantis?! You HAVE to tell me the truth. Little children keep pointing and crying and I swear I saw YOU laughing it up with Lutz and Slade
T: *laughter* you missed the lighting guys laughing at your jacket too. Sorry, man

R: MY JACKET!!!!!!!! WHAT THE BLEEEEEEPPPP do you mean by that?! I finally got rid of the tweed and found some more age-appropriate clothing for my character and now you’re making fun of me?

R: I should kick you off that box you’re standing on right now that’s supposed to make you look near my height but is still about 5 inches too short. What would you do then?! Call for Daddy and Mommy.

R: You tell Slade and Lutz I’ll meet them behind the catering tent and we can see who dazzles all over their aaass-
T: Bro, I was talking about the “kick me” sign they put on the back of your jacket during the dinner break. Get a grip.

E: What? You know Taylor, that really hurts my feelings. You might think about the emotional impact and potential long term effects your actions have on others. Oh and tell Slade I’ll still dazzle his ass if he wants.

I sure hope the whole movie is half this entertaining and full of crazy facial expressions.

Happy Saturday!
Moon

Can we all give a collective round of applause for the wardrobe folks putting Edward back in younger clothing? And how tall do you think the box Taylor is standing on is?

Can we all give a collective round of applause for the wardrobe folks for putting him in a HOODIE?!
That one in Twi in the hospital scene was so hot.
Thank you, wardrobe people.
Um. These are effing hilarious, Moon!
When you, I mean Rob, started going on about the long term effects of hurt feelings I started to think about all the stuff I’ve learned at uni this term . . . I guess everytime I learn sh*t like that now I’ll think about Rob. Not that I mind . . .

my hope for Eclipse is that Slade turned back to the icy blue colours, I loved them so much better in Twilight than the warm colours in NM…and the scene you’re talking about is all white, blue, COLD (well, minus Rob, he is always HOT)

Janetrigs until very recently hated Ron, but now I think she likes him.

Loved blueish colours too in the first film. Much more stylish and atmospheric.

Sadly enough the make up department from NM didnt get fired for their ‘awesome’ work. I do think that they are the ones who actually making fun of The Pretty (and getting paid for that, bloody bastards!), trying to make him look less like The Pretty and more like a mummy.

Does anyone remember Marcel Marceau? French guy, lots of white makeup and red lipstick, didn’t talk very much? That’s what Rob’s makeup looks like to me. Fortunately some of the other stills I’ve seen don’t look that bad, like in the meadow with Bella. Maybe Slade was able to fix some of this in the final edit? I liked the contacts better in Twilight, too. The Cullens are supposed to “fit in” pretty well and not be that noticeable to people. If you saw someone with eyes like Edward’s in these pics you would definitely run in the other direction. “Praying Mantis man, eeek!!”

I think that we’ve been treated to some bad (tone down the Revlon Red #4163 Red lipstick, please) and wildly inconsistent make-up in both movies so far- can’t wait to see the full effect in Eclipse. Maybe it will never be as good as our imaginations.

And yes, I remember Marceau-

By: drsaka on May 22, 2010 at 11:30 am

yes, le mime Marceau.

I seriously don’t know what eye problems the make-up “artist” has. It is impossible to put that much powder on smb’s face, if the set was a bit windy, everyone would be full of white.

I don’t remember well Twi but the only thing I liked in NM was the images at the beginning, like going from the painting to the Volturi’s castle, or Bella drowning, suffering in her room with the camera going round. That and of course Rob looking hawt with red eyes in Italy.

Yeah well…..we would have to change the whole saga…for that one
I think!!! LOL……edward/jacob…lovestory….LMFAO!!!

What were we talking about??? 😀

By: melronin on May 22, 2010 at 9:38 am

Mel- I’m sure that there is a fanfic somewhere concerned with that.

By: drsaka on May 22, 2010 at 9:43 am

drsaka, there is..Rob “told” me, he read part of it…they are all in bed later….lol..I have no clue, I don’t read FF

By: robgirl86 on May 22, 2010 at 9:47 am

Please don’t tell me which one it is- that wouldn’t be for me!!!

By: drsaka on May 22, 2010 at 9:50 am

I think there are about a million fanfics or slash (is that the right term) on this very topic. Couldn’t stomach it myself as it is so obvious that rampant heterosexuality is the only possible interpretation of Twilight.

I have now read one fanfic (in a moment of boredom). Daniel Gale one called Resident Geek……it actually wasn’t that bad. Have you read this one? I love geekward and the edward in this is quite a good Daniel Gale type character.

By: mine!mine!mine! on May 22, 2010 at 11:37 am

Hi M!x3- yes, I’ve read Resident Geek- it was cute; I liked it. Some of the ff is quite good. There’s a lot to chose from. there are a couple of other Daniel Gale type ff out there.

By: drsaka on May 22, 2010 at 11:40 am

I was thinking about that recently (because it’s normal to think about this right?). Since he was about 8 years old when they cast him in Twilight, were they hoping/assuming he’d grow as normal folk do by the time they shot later movies? Sucks to be them.

Here is what Twi-Fic Promotions wrote about it:
‘Blinding’ by: xlavendermoonx

This fic is entirely unique and captured me right from the first chapter. Bella Swan is sent to Forks by “The Project” to do some investigating. She happens to be a new transfer to Hale College and it’s here where she meets Edward Cullen. The minute Edwards lays eyes on Bella he is intrigued by her beauty and finds her very mysterious. This Bella is hot and happens to carry a Glock in her purse. Lots of questions arise from the very beginning. Why is Bella really in Forks? Is Edward Cullen in danger? From the start you see the immediate connection between Bella and Edward. There are a lot of tangy lemons in this fic, even though it is not the main focus. There is plenty of substance to this story and a lot of secrets to be revealed. The real question is will Edward still love Bella once he knows the truth? The author does a great job setting the tone for each chapter by including a playlist for each one. If you are looking for a story that’s totally different from what you have been reading then you must read the Blinding. It has action, mystery, love and sex. What more could you want? (written by Marissa)

Ok girls…advice needed..I LOVE the LTR GIRL tee on Cafe Press, but there would be massive crazy stares if I told what LTR stands for…this site is my secret indulgence..so what fun thing can I say for LTR.help me out!

Ya Donegal in ireland hmmm I think we might have to scrap the union jack for it to sell over here!! Not going to get tweed about it!!

By: Undecidedsten on May 22, 2010 at 1:15 pm

I think I will go for ltr. which is short for liter here. Like a liter is 0.264172052 gallons, in Robspeak translated would be, a pint of beer is 0.576 ltr. Kind of perfect. So I will be a fan of liters, um, well…thst should work, although I’m kinda willing to stand up for my Roblove, haha.
Love the Irish airport thing, but Irish and Union Jack is not a healthy combination in general! 😉

I am willing to stand up for him but some think me a little robsessed, which is true, I have about 5 shirts that are Twi-related without actually saying it..only the fans would know..and in my busy as hell existence, LTR is my secret getaway from Miami madness and work, I do understand about Ireland and Union Jack—baaaadddd combo..love LTR = liter…going with that!!

you didn’t miss much, I was just wondering if there were lots of frogs in LA. The amount of frogs (plus time of year) affects where I visit.

The last time I was in India a frog got into my room and I had to lock myself in the bedroom and call for help from the window. I managed to get some bloke to come up and get rid of it but I think he actually thought that I was being attacked at the time. I spent the rest of my time there with towels stuffed under the doors so the little bastards couldn’t get in whilst I slept.

I agree, it’s not good to tease people who have severe fears, especially for not flying and frogs!

By: robgirl86 on May 22, 2010 at 12:43 pm

@Drsaka, @RG, @eatmyjorts

I have been teased regarding this phobia for many years, I’m used to it so don’t worry, I can stand it. Also, I’m kind of aware that my dislike of frogs (dislike is putting it mildly) is slightly unbalanced.

I’m too scared to get treatment, cos I’m assuming it may involve having to face the little blighters. I cannot picture one in my head, if I allowed myself to do so I would have a screaming fit, I cannot look at pictures of frogs without having a screaming fit and god forbid I should come across a live one *shudder* . if i find myself in a place where there is a possiblity of a frog sighting I feel sick and suffer anxiety attacks, until I am safely away from the possibility of seeing frogs.

It will involve helping you realise that frogs are not actually dangerous in themselves, but for some reason in you, they set off a totally out of proportion fight or flight reflex. This should only happen to protect you from something actually dangerous, to help you get away, or deal with it.

So therapy will be about 2 things: frogs are not dangerous, fact, so you will be helped to actually see that in a way that makes sense to you. And to see that your anxiety response is just a harmless mistake your mind & body learned to do for some reason, & not to transfer the mistaken feelings of ‘great danger’ onto something harmless, here the frog. The fact that you can type ‘frog’ gives away that there’s hope for you! The fact that I can type flying & underground does the same for me. Once I could…& I hope to again.

I also love frogs…I scared one in my garden only yesterday & it was too frightened to let me pick it up to admire it so it hopped away double quick. They’re endangered here, a bit.

DO IT! XXX

By: eatmyjorts on May 23, 2010 at 5:02 am

@eatmyjorts

Thanks for the advise.

The problem is I can’t see how anyone could help. I know why I’m so freaked out by frogs, and I’m aware that it’s a form of transfer. So how could anyone help me with the phobia? it wouldn’t be a case of working out where the initial problem stems from. it all seems kind of hopless and I will just have to live with it and stay away from anywhere they are….which is quite difficult because they are bloody everywhere 🙂

OMG, when I was a child I swam in a lake we had in a week-end country house, lake with frogs!!! Until mum and dad found out horrified! I dunno how I managed not to get any desease or be scared considering how they explained me the situation.

or maybe you meant how I am now after the experience, like am I sane? Well, I do hang on a blog about Rob when I usually don’t have the time to and I have a major crush on said guy that I never met. I’ll let you do your own opinion about my mental state.
xo

And yay for the hoodie! I mean the peacoat was great and all…but looking at him strutting around in a tailored peacoat. Who WOULD be friends with this guy!? Oh, and sculpted eyebrows, who could forget that!

Oh good! I was beginning to think that I was too crazy for this site! The commentary is the only way to go!!

By: Rob'sFutureMate on May 23, 2010 at 12:18 pm

No ones crazy were all normal! That was a twifail on my part!

By: Undecidedsten on May 23, 2010 at 4:06 pm

Remember Me commentary? Anybody know the details? Rob’s on it, right? But, if it’s only on Blu Ray I just can’t afford to update.

And they haven’t even started shooting Breaking Dawn yet but I am dying to hear the self-deprecating commentary from Rob as Edward performs the chomp-section!

By: patti on May 23, 2010 at 8:44 pm

Remember Me commentary- according to an MTV post both DVD and blueray will have commentary with Rob. Yay! Can’t wait, that’s what I missed the most with NM. It just wasn’t the same, although there was a british accent it wasn’t the one we love!

By: Rob'sFutureMate on May 23, 2010 at 11:47 pm

Moon,
Did R turn into E at the end cause he was channeling his character? LOL He probably would!

Hey ya’ll. It’s been a while since I commented but I’ve lurked. (well, not much in the last week). I want to first say thanks to Bleriana, Southern Belle & everyone else for the condolences on the death of my husbands grandmother (who raised him when his “mom” walked out & never looked back 34 yrs ago.) It really made me feel a bit better.
Now on to Rob. The contacts for Eclipse…really? The ones from Twilight were so much better. Whoever said they were suppose to fit in is right, these new contacts would make me freak out if I saw someone with those eyes. Jacob on a box…made me laugh (which I desparately needed). How the heck are they gonna make Jake taller than Edward?? More boxes maybe telephone books. Yep, got a good laugh out of that too. But my favourite was make Rob kneel. I nearly spit tea all over the computer with that one! I don’t want to think about Rob kneeling in front of Taylor, but I wouldn’t mind thinking about kneeling in front of Rob!! Sorry. NEXT…THere is NOTHING sexier than angry Rob. (Ok, I’m sure there is…like NAKED angry Rob or just naked Rob but anyway). The colours in Twilight…YES they were so much better than NM. Also MUCH better in Twilight was the wardrobe & make-up itself. I prefer Rob without the bright red lipstick. Tone it down a bit make-up dept. All in all, Rob is one extremely fuckhawt, sexy piece of eye candy!!:) Thanks for the post ya’ll. Have a great weekend. I’m off to the river to spend some time chilling with my son, stepson & my husband’s family:) Thanks again for the thoughts & prayers & thanks for the wonderful sexy pics of The Rob:):):)

Dear Rob, Moon, UC, & all the LTR ladies,
ALL of you have made this very difficult time much easier for me. Thanks. I love you all.
Lots & Lots of Love,
Melinda M

Good god, so now he’s a ladies man, a good dancer (another girl from Hungary commented he went clubbing while there too and was dancing and a very GOOD dancer at that)…….so now I’m beginning to think he’s good in bed as well……..Will he ever give me peace?

Ohhh I’m sooo glad he’s back to sweatshirts!
It’s sooo Rob and not Ed, which is way better! I mean fighting Victoria in tweed wouldn’t be comfortable. Don’t rip the nice tweed. You know?

[nonsense]
Did you notice about that scene the hilarious awkward silence after Charlie cuts in? It’s like this dramatic moment of them arguing and then Charlie walks in and hes all ok, this is teenage bullshit, like, Stop…now…cuz its stupid. LMAO! It’s like you can see how ridiculous Charlie sees it in his perspective and you’re like yeah IT IS STUPID! Why am I watching teenagers fight over a flat chested girl?! You know?!
[/nonsense]
